FunFam 115420: Acetyl xylan esterase

There are 4 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Cephalosporin-C deacetylase. [EC: 3.1.1.41]
Cephalosporin C + H(2)O = deacetylcephalosporin C + acetate.
  • Hydrolyzes the acetyl ester bond on the 10-position of the antibiotic cephalosporin C.

Acetylxylan esterase. [EC: 3.1.1.72]
Deacetylation of xylans and xylo-oligosaccharides.
  • Catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetyl groups from polymeric xylan, acetylated xylose, acetylated glucose, alpha-napthyl acetate, p-nitrophenyl acetate but not from triacetylglycerol.
  • Does not act on acetylated mannan or pectin.

    Carboxylesterase. [EC: 3.1.1.1]
    A carboxylic ester + H(2)O = an alcohol + a carboxylate.
    • Wide specificity; also hydrolyzes vitamin A esters.
    • The enzymes from microsomes also catalyze the reactions of EC 3.1.1.2, EC 3.1.1.5, EC 3.1.1.6, EC 3.1.1.23, EC 3.1.1.28, EC 3.1.2.2, EC 3.5.1.4, and EC 3.5.1.13.
    • Formerly EC 3.1.1.12.
